The mysterious blue glow w/ discharges looks like Cherenkov radiation, even though I’m pretty sure it’s just blue lights serving as a backdrop to some high voltage discharge.
This is basically the most sci-fi thing ever—it’s like the visual director of the universe decided that high-energy radiation in water had to glow blue to show the audience that something weird was going on.
It took me a while to understand that the “blue glow” comment was directed at the electric discharges picture in the comment you replied to, and not at your own nuclear reactor picture, which is real Cherenkov radiation.
